The business and human rights policy was a long time coming. We finally have a chair of the committee but we need to put the policy into action as regards Irish business and not let the policy sit on the shelf. We are told this is being done in the context of trade but we do not want to hear of Irish companies that are involved in dubious practices relating to workers' rights and decent pay.
